Default "NASCAR" Tony Stewart verses Carl Edwards

Well it has come down to a 2 man chase.

ALL the other are to many points down even if they win.

And it's in Homestead! I'm only an hour away 75-80 miles

I'm rooting for Tony "SMOKE"

I'll try to get some Pictures down there next Sunday
how many fans we have for one or the other?

I'm not really a racing fan, but I do hope "The Rushville Rocket" Tony Stewart pulls it off. Tony started his racing career here in the small town I live nearest, Rushville, Indiana, and the town is always more interesting when he wins.

My favorite driver is whoever has the cajones to put gay boy Jimmie Johnson in the wall.

Roll on SMOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do like Carl too, but I think I'd rather see Smoke win.

Been Bobby Labonte fan for many years but of those two I like Tony. Have met him several times at Pocono. Live about 20 miles away and we have a fenceline reserved campsite.

Go Carl Go

I'm really disappointed that the 48 team isn't going to set a world record of six consecutive championships in a row.

I had to laugh when Kyle had to sit out an entire weekend. He is screwing up, first lost his licence for speeding in a Lexus LFA then crashing Mike Skinner WAY after the caution flag. He deserved at least what he got.

I was thinking that there wasn't any NASCAR fans here, I'm super happy that I am wrong.

I have to say Tony Stewart just because a good friend of mine is a Tony Stewart fan. I like Formula 1 racing however. Michael Schumacher = #1. Ferrari FTW.

OK, as usual I'm the odd man out who is pulling for Carl Edwards. We're from Missouri and my wife grew-up in mid-Missouri just a few mile south of where Carl is from so she's a big time fan of Carl.

Truth is, as long as it's not Jimmy Johnson (again) or Kyle Busch, I'm good to go. Tony Stewart is as likable as it gets and I would be just fine if he won it too.

I am pulling for Tony. I literally lived 10 miles from Eldora Speedway which he purchased. I used to race there on the weekends sometimes. I went to the first Dream Race where Robby Gordon got out there and tore the hell outta the track. I had been goin to Eldora since I was a kid and I had never seen any one drive that track as agressive as he did. Any way the day of the race we got there 4 hours early and had a chance to meet some of the drivers. Actually talked with Tony for about 10 minutes about the track and the work he put into it.

Pulling for Carl since my favorite driver (Greg Biffle) did not make the chase. Going to be a good race indeed.

Fast cars turning left.

5 years ago I won an all expenses paid trip to the Phoenix 500, in a promo by Ridgid tools. I told 'em to give it to the next in line. Didn't even get a thank you.

Do I care who wins....?

Ya'll be nice, or I'll put ya on my 'ignore' list.

Ha , crash bang Spencer, LOL. He grew up about 10 minutes from me. I used to love when he was driving and they came to Pocono. His pop and family run a junkyard and he hosted a huge cookout back in the yard. They would get some junkers running and had a small oval back near the woods. They would enjoy some hoppy beverages and race around the track. Dale Sr was good friends with Jimmy and Dale Jr drove in some of those "races" when he was 13 or 14 yrs old. Rumor has it he laid the chrome horn to Mark Martin pretty good one time.
